Slay the dragon on St George’s Day with delicious English food and drink

St George’s Day is a magnificent time to celebrate with friends or colleagues and lots food and drink.

Catering companies offer excellent menus on England’s national day, which are full of delicious traditional English dishes.

What exactly is a traditional English meal? You might be surprised to know that fish and chips of all things came from Spain, brought to us by Jewish refugees.

Other European countries consider us a philistine food nation, but that is incredibly unfair as we have some amazing culinary delights.

Afternoon tea is scrumptious, definitely English and is ideal for school parties, which are very popular on St George’s Day.

Kids absolutely love to see long tables packed with varied plates of tasty treats and they will munch on anything.

They will devour English tea components such as tuna sandwiches, ham and egg pie, sausage rolls and cheese scones. And don’t forget pork pies and pickled onions.

Sweet options will drive the kids crazy, and they have to be English tarts on St George’s Day. Who can’t remember devouring jam, custard and treacle tarts as a 10 year old with your hands all sticky but ready for more.

St George’s Day catering is not just for kids. It is also a fabulous way for work colleagues to get together after the office to let their hair down.

Managers can improve their image among their staff by bringing in a catering company to lay on a great St George’s Day feast.

Canapés catering is an excellent option for this because they work well at less formal gatherings and you can custom-make them to suit any occasion.

Yes, you can have a fish and chips canapés, or even a chicken tikka massala canapé.

Dessert canapés can be trifle flavoured or my own preference for St George’s Day – a Victoria sponge cake canapé.

Book your St George’s Day catering company without delay. It is a great way to say thanks to your employees and to strengthen team bonds.
